Has anyone taken Clonidine for anxiety?

Nope.  Maybe put the product name into the 'search' box here to see if any threads pop up? 

Anxiety is the pits.  Without my emergency drug I wouldn't be here.  I also have 20mg beta-blocka at night to stop surges in the morning caused probably, by cortisol - the wake up hormone.

Do you keep a mood/food/symptom diary?
